Strictly speaking, no matter how beautiful the picture of "twilight" is, how coherent the editing is, and how tight the rhythm is, the lack of production funds can still be seen. However, the soul of the film, Edward and Isabella, under the interpretation of Lee Joon-yi and Kristen Stewart, firmly captured everyone's hearts, and that was enough.
When the lights came back to light in the Nokia Theater, the audience gave a standing ovation, accompanied by a constant stream of screams. In the meantime, the voice calling for Edward is the most powerful, which shows that the actor still has an innate advantage in attracting the box office and attracting the audience. It can't be said that men and women are unequal, but it has always been easy for male actors to attract the box office and have more audiences, whether it is for male or female audiences.
Although "Twilight" is told from Isabella's point of view, it is the character of Edward who finally wins the highest popularity, including the role of the little werewolf Jacob from the second part. Isabella will become the most envied character of all women, but in terms of popularity, she is still inferior to Edward.
Either way, these are delicate things. But the screening of "Twilight" was incomparably successful, there is no doubt about it.
Hollywood, the world's most famous dream factory, stages the sweetness of "bitter end" or the myth of "success" every day, whether it is a popular star or a box office hit, on this stage of Hollywood, they always gather the world's flashing lights. That's why so many artists want to be on the Hollywood stage.
Today, Lee Joon-yi also tried to take on this challenge. And now, Lee Joon-yi is relying on this "twilight" movie to continue to write this Hollywood timeless "overnight fame" fairy tale with a box office result that everyone is jaw-dropping.
Two years ago, the "Dragon Knight", based on the best-selling magic of teenagers, tried to cry for the first time, but failed miserably. This time, in the "Twilight Zone," which has been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than 150 weeks, almost every American teenager, especially girls, is proud to have read "Twilight," just as "Harry Potter" was in the limelight in previous years. Critics have the right to believe that the film "Twilight", based on the "Twilight" series, will not be easy to achieve box office success, just as it was with "Dragon Knight" two years ago.
However, "Twilight" succeeded. This time, it seems that even the heavens are building momentum for Li Zhunyi, building momentum for the "twilight", occupying the "twilight" of the time, place, and people, and succeeding without any doubt.
Originally, "Twilight" was scheduled to be released on December 12, because the movie released on November 21 had the giant crocodile "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", but I didn't expect that another Warner Bros. film "Batman: The Dark Knight" was a big hit this summer, and Warner Bros. began to take precautions. In order to support the scene, Warner Bros. made a decision that made fans around the world spurn: move "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" to July next year, so as to ensure a hot harvest in the summer of 2oo9. As soon as this news came out, in addition to Warner Bros. being inundated with saliva, the schedule of the November movie also changed dramatically. "Twilight" is one of them, bringing the screening forward by three weeks to November 21, when "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" used to be.
There were no other blockbusters coming out this weekend, with only Disney's animated film "Lightning Dog" and "OO7: Quantum of Solace" on November 14, but the audience overlap is so small that they pose little threat to each other. The most important thing is that with the withdrawal of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", only "Twilight" will stand out as a magical film in this year's Thanksgiving and Christmas files. You must know that the winter file of the North American film market has long been inseparable from magic movies.
- The withdrawal of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has caused a huge change in the movie schedule, and this is the right time.
If "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" still airs as planned, then "Twilight", which will be released three weeks later, will inevitably face the still hot popularity of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", which will not only greatly reduce the number of viewers, but also the number of movie theaters will be crowded, which is the worst-case scenario.
But now, the number of movie theaters that have finally been confirmed for the release of "Twilight" has reached 3,419, and you must know that the more movie theaters are released, the greater the likelihood that the movie will get a high box office. Such a large broadcast range ensures that whether it is in a big city or a small town, you can watch "twilight" simultaneously from the 21st, which is exciting good news for the audience and the crew.
-- The number of movie theaters has increased dramatically, which is a geographical advantage.
Nowadays, the tall, mighty, handsome and sunny Prince Charming is outdated, and the gloomy, indifferent, emaciated and charming literary youth is no longer in fashion, and in the eyes of today's girls, the cold and tall, enigmatic and charming man with fatal temptation, the man who is like poison when he is evil and like the sun when he is gentle, is the most in line with their fantasies - this is the vampire. Therefore, "Twilight" became popular and satisfied the fantasies of all women, and these loyal book lovers have been transformed into loyal fans of "Twilight" movies.
Among them, Edward played by Lee Joon-yi perfectly presents the fantasies of all women, and even the charm recognized by Stephanie Mayer, the original creator, naturally highlights the appeal of "twilight" movies - this is real, and it is no longer a dead thing described in the book.
In addition, since the end of last year, the Hollywood screen, which is occupied by male films for most of the time, has undergone a lot of changes: "Enchanted Romance" and "Juno", which are aimed at female audiences, have shined, "27 is suitable to marry", "Mamma Mia", "Youth 3" have become popular, and the "** Urban" movie version has also created a romantic comedy screening record. It can be seen that female audiences have occupied an important position in the film market.
Hollywood's favorite fixed audience is the original readers who are waiting for the film version. Countless women fantasize about seeing their beloved stories unfold on the big screen as soon as possible, so they're bound to flock to the cinema in the first place, and Hollywood's competitive nature is being taken advantage of here – who wants to be the only loser who returns to class on Monday morning only to be the only one who hasn't seen "Twilight" yet?
- The book is good, the people are excellent, and the female audience is powerful.
In addition, Summit Entertainment also has a set of promotional strategies, focusing on action scenes in trailers and TV commercials, which makes all men mistakenly think that "Twilight" is a vampire action movie, and thus enter the cinema. In addition, Summit Entertainment also worked hard to promote "Twilight" as a "dating movie suitable for couples", which also made "Twilight" when it was released, many women pulled their boyfriends into the cinema together, adding a lot to the box office.
All in all, the right time, the right place, and the right people, "Twilight" has created a huge success that has dislocated the jaws of all critics.
On Friday, November 21, it was released in the United States, and on the day of its release, the revenue of the zero-hour film was as high as 7 million US dollars, and on this data, "OO7: Quantum of Solace" was only 2.6 million. On Friday, "Twilight" grossed $37 million: "Twilight" cost $37 million to shoot, and the film paid for itself on the first day of its release, which was enough to jaw everyone. This result ranks second among non-summer films, behind "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".
Among them, the proportion of female audiences exceeded 8o%, of which the audience under the age of 25 accounted for 58%, which shows the strong influence of "twilight" among American teenage girls, and also let Hollywood see the strong consumption power of women.
After Friday, there was the best time to make a box office surge: the weekend.
Weekends are always the most competitive time at the box office, and although "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" is gone, competition at the North American box office is still strong this week, except for "Lightning Dog" and "oo7". "Madagascar 2", which has only been released for three weeks, is still in good spirits, "Youth Musical" released last month is still in full swing, and the Oscar hits "Changing Sons" and "Slumdog Millionaire" have only been screened for a short time. It can be said that this weekend is the best time for the box office to soar, but it is also the first test of the "twilight" condition.
And the fact is that "Twilight" has withstood the test, after experiencing the madness of screening, the craze of "Twilight" has not dissipated, on Saturday and Sunday, it has collected 55 million US dollars at the box office, and during the screening week, "Twilight" has created a box office of 92 million US dollars, and the trend of breaking 100 million is strong. This achievement, which has shattered the glasses of almost all Hollywood industry insiders, is really terrible.
The $92 million film performance ranks fourth in the history of cinema in November, second only to the three series of "Harry Potter", and squeezes movies such as "Human Mobilization" and "OO7: Quantum of Solace" behind. And this result is also ranked fourth, second only to "Batman: The Dark Knight", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Iron Man".
Of course, there is no doubt that the results of "Twilight" rank first in the history of film for vampire films. In addition, the box office of "Twilight" on Friday ranked 14th in the ranking of previous screening days in film history, and even surpassed "Iron Man" - you must know that the weekly box office of "Iron Man" exceeded 100 million, and "Twilight" has also become the second highest movie, second only to "Batman: The Dark Knight".
At this time, the success of "Twilight" does not need to be repeated, and the real box office results are enough to make all industry insiders stunned.
Today's third more arrived.
